Police commandos and explosive detection dogs search throughout the People's Power Party in Yeouido, Seoul.

This is because of the threatening fax that they installed explosives in our company.

I stole the name of a Japanese lawyer as a caller, and similar threats have been going on for days.

A fax came in that the floor leader of the People's Power Kwon Sung-dong's Gangneung office had already installed explosives,
Three days before
, the Ministry of Justice received an e-mail warning that high-performance bombs would explode in various parts of Korea's downtown at night, claiming that they were responsible for the Jeju Air disaster.

In August last year, a major domestic institution and the Democratic Party of Korea leader Lee Jae-myung's threat to terrorize explosives were also sent under the name of a Japanese lawyer.

Police said they conducted a large-scale search of the people's power and the office of floor leader Kwon Sung-dong, but found no dangerous substances, and said they would track down the person who sent the fax regardless of whether the explosives were installed.

Meanwhile, online communities posted that they would use a weapon against Acting President Choi Sang-mok.

An Internet user living in Busan was the first to report a post and started an investigation in Busan, but the author's identity has not yet been identified.

Earlier on December 27 last year, police caught a 60-year-old who commented on an Internet article saying that if Han Deok-soo, then acting president, was impeached, he would blow up the Democratic Party's headquarters.
